THE ERA OF TRUMP

[Hanarchy Montanarchy]

I am relieved that, in spite of being constantly harangued by the lying media, and under constant attack by Democrat conspiracies, the Trump administration has found the strength to protect crony capitalism as valiantly as Clinton would have.

Senate Republicans on Tuesday night leaned on a tie-breaking vote from Vice President Mike Pence to kill a landmark financial regulation that restricts banks and credit card companies from imposing mandatory arbitration on their customers as a means to resolve disputes.

That should come as no surprise to you, if you were aware that Congress has since 1926 statutorily encouraged the use of arbitration. Derp.

It doesn't surprise me. It just amuses me that the candidate of reaction against crooked ol' Wall Street big donation Hillary managed such an expert bait and switch under the ever watchful eye of the anti-Trump fake news.

Just sneaking a little policy news into the thread that is focused on comedy of Spy versus Spy errors of who did what with Russia in the era of Trump.

Don't use credit cards..

How do you demand somebody lend you unsecured money under whatever terms you demand?

I agree those terms suck for consumers. So don't borrow money under them.

This.

Show some personal agency.

We're deregulating this shit.

Well quelle fuckin' surprise, the fans are all pro-cronyism now that it is a swamp-draining 'deregulation' somehow. Fascinating really.

Please do refer to and read De O's post. Congress pushing statues for arbitration, congress allowing litigation. Regulators HOOO either damn way ain't it?

But no, no. This is deregulation because the GOP likes it. On the plus side, Trump doesn't have to foot his own reelection bill now that it is totally cool to cozy up to them Wall Street dinner party luminaries... for deregulating purposes of course.

Where is clubby to call people hacks in the absolute crassest way when you need him?

This was only one part of the budget plan that was passed btw. I haven't really looked at the whole thing but it increases the debt limit by five trillion and there's something in there about cutting government spending at the same time. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

Okay, that was a really good left turn.

I was looking on twitter for #JFKFiles news, and a link led me to foxnews.com. The sidebar of links was a buffet of laffs. With the exception of the CVS report, every single one of these provided a legit chuckle (especially because of the "science" and "entertainment" tags.

'Strange 'alien activity' causing Arizona couple to sell home.' should be in 'markets.'

Dummies.
